Things seem to have gone full circle. I remember a few years ago, I stumbled across HOTU, and thought "Old games, huzzah!" After spending a bit of time looking up games I had on my old amiga, I decided to branch out and get those Leisure Suit Larry games that I'd heard so much about. So I chucked it in the search, and the only thing that came up was Larry Vales, Traffic Cop. I figured it was close enough and downloaded it instead. This game was a work of pure genius, and so I hastend to download the second one, therein I found a reference to a game called Rob Blanc by a then amature adventure game developer called Yahtzee. So, I went over to his site to get those games, and found he was then writing a comic named Yahtzee Takes On The World. I'm sure you all know the story from there, wherein Yahtze's successful comic comes to a close, and he moves to fullyramblomatic.com, only to(eventually)write an article on Leisure Suit Larry, the game that for me started it all. Now, I know that this post is completely rubbish to everyone involved, but hey, I just realised that I still haven't played the games, so I have to do something whilst eMule downloads them.

Leisure Suit Larry corrupted my fragile little mind. I played them when I was about 12. Bad idea.

I played some of Yahtzee's "altered" copy. It pissed me off.
Check out my crappy drawings!

Like most Sierra adventure games, I hate it, want it to die, and wish I'd never come across it. And yet I can't seem to stop playing once I start.
